I am getting tired of this (rant)  

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
For the last two weeks, my mom has been telling me what days would be good to have the baby. " Don't have the baby this day b/c I have to work, Don't have it this day I have this and that and this" Then my dad on Sunday was like don't have the baby until the snow clears up. Does he want me to wait until June. : My MIL told me not to have the baby this afternoon b/c she has a lawyer appt that she can't get out. And then my SIL who is my doula is teaching a prenatal class this weekend so she is gone all weekend. Last night my mom called and told me that is was stormy where she leave (45 mins away) and that if I go into labour last night she won't make it. And then she told me "whisper to the baby not to come until the storm passed" I am getting so frustrated b/c I really want this baby to come and I am sick of being told when the baby should or shouldn't come. Like I have any control over this. If I did the baby would be here already. I have done tons of natural induction and the baby is still baking. I am only one day past due. If one more person says to me when I should have this baby I am going to scream.

Ok I am done now.

You have that baby whenever you and baby are good and ready to have that baby, ok?



Don't you worry about a thing, mama!

I have to laugh cause I was due the same day as you. Still pg obviously. I am the only one concerned when I can or can't have this baby.

I can't have the baby today, Its my dds birthday. I can't have the baby on Sunday cause its a birthday party (which I guess means if I have the baby tomorrow it would put a cramp on the party as well). I can't have the baby Wednesday cause thats ds' birthday. I told dh today I can't have the baby today and he laughed at me. Told me not to worry about it. I guess in the end the day the baby picks is the best day. Just roll your eyes at your family like dh did to me. Its not up to anyone but the baby anyhow!

How is it that people are so rude? I think everyone should have to take a class, I don't know just sometime before they are adults, and maybe a refresher course every so often, about the emotions of a pregnant woman. We don't want people touching our bellies, we don't want them asking when we are due, we don't want to hear that we are having twins, are huge, about to pop, or whatever. Something about being around someone who is pregnant though seems to bring out the stupid in people.
I know with my first my mom kept telling me not to have her on these certain dates because the birthdays were full on those days. My mom makes a calander each year and we have a big family. I told her I didn't care and she could write smaller if she needed to. But this year she told me not to have teh baby this weekend actually. My brother is graduating from boot camp and she would just have her cell phone on her, so she might not hear right away. Well, you know she never even left me her cell phone number. So if I do somehow go into labor this weekend it will be days before she hears about it
